Kang Qiang’spottery sculptures freely express his strongsubjective consciousness. His works representthe pure beauty of spirit.

康強的陶塑，自由地表現了他的強烈主觀意識。材料是陶制的，手法、燒制工藝是傳統的，區別在于個性的突顯和張揚。

他選擇了內心意念的有形空間表達，似乎沒有任何力量和理由阻礙他這樣，一如臨水賞魚催生了他的異想《瞬間的凝固》，內心的迷茫、索思與糾結驅動了《文明的沖突》。魚這一古老的巖畫、陶繪題材并不稀缺，而康強表現的魚，有一種強行凝固的安然狀態。這似乎是矛盾的，然而所有關于魚的神情或姿態，流露出來多是依稀情愿的無水狀態下的安頓。作品中的魚似乎關聯著作者精神假托與救贖，外人不易察覺亦易忽略。這在《文明的沖突》中尤為突出：僧人仰目瞪視的無助，與那頭頂意外糾結的蜥蜴、沉重的十字架、冰冷的利劍構成了視覺經驗的悖理。
